Yes, New York was originally divided into two separate colonies: New York and New Jersey. The area was originally part of the Dutch colony of New Netherland before being captured by the English in 1664. After its capture, New York was established as a proprietary colony, while New Jersey was split off and granted to different proprietors, leading to its development as a separate colony. This division remained until New Jersey became a royal colony in 1702.
